Itinerary
My favorite part prior to the trip is making my itinerary. As I have said before, I do not necessarily stick with it 100% once I get there. I do, however, like to stay organized with an itinerary. It helps me to narrow down what I would like to see on my travels as well as organize it by location. There are a lot of things I would like to see while in London, so I decided to break it down into days and locations. Trust me... I know it sounds obsessive, but I am a planner. It is what I do. Again, this doesn't mean I will stick with the itinerary in its entirety. I have honestly never followed my plans exactly. *BUT* it gives a good starting point, so I don't forget anything and have an idea of where things are. That way I am not running all over the city every day.
Feel free to offer suggestions!
